8673. 'Who had rescued them from the hand of the Egyptians' means because of their deliverance from attack by the molesters. This is clear from the meaning of 'rescuing' as deliverance, as above in 8671; and from the representation of 'the Egyptians' as those who used falsities to engage in molestation, also dealt with above in 8668.

8671. 'And how Jehovah had rescued them' means deliverance by the Lord's Divine aid. This is clear from the meaning of 'rescuing' as deliverance, 'Jehovah' being the Lord in the Word, see 1343, 1736, 1815, 2447, 2921, 3035, 5041, 5663, 6280, 6303, 6405.
